Kyriad Marseille

... made some friends had we the time and resources to put together costumes... I decided we were dressed up as Canadians, which I thought would have worked great until Tom pointed out that Canadians would probably speak more French. But we weren't really left out, there were only a handful of people dressed up. Overall; here is the tally of costumes in Aix on halloween: 2 girls in witch hats (with one stocking each), 5 ...

... stay at this lovely lady&#8217;s home and forward onto Italy from another port<br>2) change destination to another port on Corse where there are more options for forwarding onto Italy<br>3) wait 2 days until there is a direct ferry from Marseille to italy (the one we thought we were on)<br><br>In the end we decided on No. 2. I was actually thankfull for once of Brian&#8217;s obsessive earliness as ...

... Enjoyed the film (but enjoyed the post-cinema demi-fraise - beer with strawberry syrup - more) and was proud at how well I managed to follow the French, without much concentration! A sign of improvement I hope!<br><br>This weekend in particular has been fantastique! As everyone else's parents have come to visit, Amy and I spent our Saturday shopping, eating and generally having a good time without alcohol. As usual, I got very excited about a sweet shop and between us we ...

... yesterday, Saturday, and it is cooler but still nice. The trip here was spectacular with many olive groves and big mountains. Today we went on a tour to Les Beax - another medieval town with a castle - poor Graham and on his birthday too. Then we went winetasting and to the premier olive oil producers in France. The Mistrql was blowing on the tour and it was very cold but warmer back here in the camp. Tomorrow we explore Aix on foot then we go to Avignon.

... ask where they will sleep and what they will eat?" Yep, I reckon that&#8217;s about all they do. Jesus was lucky; he never had to score WiFi. But he could multiply fishes; now THAT&#8217;S cool.<br><br>Sometimes I tell my wife when I feel she&#8217;s not being appreciative that all she has to do is close her eyes, click her heels three times, then re-open her eyes and everything she needs is right within her grasp ...

... is now home to mostly Middle Eastern and African immigrants. The tourists were not hard to pick outat all. Who would have thought that I would stick out like a sore thumb in France of all places! <br><br>All in all Marseille and Provence gave me everything I was looking for and I really enjoyed the ethnicity of the area. I had read that Marseille was diverse but I was actually shocked when I experienced it for real. I don't know that it's the type of place for ...

... looked out onto the old port, a lively area full of cafes, restaurants and shops.. The first thing we saw from our window each morning were small fishing boats returning to port. The fishermen docked their their boats right up to the end of the quais, jumped off their boats, and still wearing their yellow-rubber waders, dumped their morning's catch from big, black pails right onto tables they'd set up with framed waterbeds for the fish.There then followed a ready ...

... in terms of area. We arrived in Marseille around 10pm. We took a bus from the airport to the Metro station, then took the metro a few stops into Old Port. We walked around a bit trying to find our hotel but it was in a different place then where it was on the map. It was actually right on the port. We didn't see it straight away because the big sign saying 'Tonic Hotel' only had 'Hotel' lit up. Our room didn't have much of a view but it was so cute!!

besides being quite cold, this was a nice town... kinda sleepy in the off season, i imagine it is just packed in the summer... people enjoying the sun and beaches... i walked around the fort St Jean which looks out over the water and got some good views... the walk up to the Basilica on the hill was great as well... made for some good photos... not really too much else besides ...

Ouf de justesse je suis arrivée à temps à Marseille. J'était prise à Pau parce que des étudiant de lycée faisaient une grève. Du lycée!!! N'importe quoi. Peu importe je suis dans l'avion j'arrive à 10h à Marrakech. Je suis un peu nerveuse car je trouve que c'est tard comme heure. Il est vrai que g rendez-vous avec Romain. Il arrive 15 ...
